The world is full of people trying to sell businessmen the idea that web sites are expensive and difficult to build. They talk about the on-going expense of maintaining the site and the time taken to keep them up to date. Believe them if you like. To give an idea of what is possible for [...]

So. – We always knew it, but….

January 26th, 2008 · 1 Comment · Life - and all that
